mayest  furnish  the  Master  with  a good  piece  of  wood  for  His  kingdom- - -Luther . 

Education  is  that  which  prepares  a man  to  fulfill  justly,  skilfully  and  magnanimously 
every  public  and  private  duty  in  life. ---Milton.

Bishop  W.  S.  Lewis — “He  is  a great  man  for  this  mighty  task.” 

Dr.  Thos.  Nicholson,  Secretary  Methodist  Board  of  Education — “Dr.  Craig  is  scholarly,  exceedingly  well-read,  familiar 
with  educational  problems,  an  administrator  of  high  order,  and  every  way  capable.” 


President  A.  IV.  Harris,  Northwestern  University  — “I  have  heard  him  referred  to  by  some  who  are  good  judges  and 
have  had  wide  opportunities,  as  the  most  promising  preacher  in  the  Methodist  church.  Certainly  he  made  before 
our  alumni  a year  ago  an  address  whose  impression  has  not  been  equalled  by  any  other  speech  of  the  kind,  made  at 
Northwestern  during  my  presidency.” 


Christian  Advocate  of  New  York — “Judged  by  what  he  is  and  by  what  he  has  done,  his  administration  at  Morning- 
side  should  be  marked  by  the  same  enthusiastic  leadership  and  solidity  of  achievement  that  were  its  characteristics 
when  Dr.  Wilson  S.  Lewis  was  at  its  head.” 


President  Samuel  Dickie,  Albion. — ' 


lDr.  Craig  uniformly  commands  the  respect  of  men.” 


Dr.  F.  L.  Thompson,  General  Secretary  of  Methodist  Brotherhood. — “I  am  thinking,  too,  of  his  influence  throughout  the 
entire  northwest — that  literal  inland  empire  of  which  Morningside  is  the  educational  and  religious  center.  No  young 
preacher  will  come  in  contact  with  him,  or  hear  him  at  any  public  occasion  of  note,  and  ever  be  quite  the  same  sort 
of  a man  after.  Dr.  Craig’s  manhood,  his  personality,  his  tense  loyalty  to  our  Lord  Christ  and  to  everything  for 
which  He  came,  will  also  so  grip  the  great  body  of  the  ministry  and  the  intelligent  lai:y  as  to  work  literal  transforma- 
tions in  their  ideals  and  devotion.” 


Central  Christian  Advocate,  Kansas  City. — “It  will  bring  a thi

PRESIDENT  ALFRED  E.  CRAIG.  Ph.  D. 


On  August  8,  1911,  the  trustees  unanimously 
elected  Alfred  E.  Craig  president  of  Morningside 
College.  Dr.  Craig  is  a man  of  foremost  ability 
and  thorough  intellectual  training,  as  shown  hy 
his  educational  experience  and  his  long  and  suc- 
cessful pastorates  at  Albion,  Mich.;  Ottumwa, 
Iowa;  Columbus,  Ohio;  and  Wilmington,  Dele- 
ware.  The  following  leading  institutions  have 
conferred  upon  him  these  degrees:  A.  B.,  North- 
western University;  B.  D.,  Garrett  Biblical  Institute; 
D.  D.,  Northwestern,  Albion  and  Garrett;  Ph.  D., 
Syracuse  University.  His  dissertation  submitted 
for  the  doctorate  in  Philosophy  was  an  able  dis- 
cussion of  the  "Philosophy  of  Socialism."  Presi- 
dent Craig  is  now  entering  upon  the  very  prime  of 
an  already  great  career.  Commanding  in  presence, 
clear  and  sure  in  his  mental  grasp,  strong  in  ad- 
ministration and  in  financial  generalship,  the  week 
he  spent  on  the  ground  at  the  time  of  his  election 
deeply  impressed  all  that  he  will  be  a master 
leader  in  building  a greater  Morningside. 


Professor  James  A.  Coss,  newly  elected  Professor  of  Chemistry 
at  Morningside,  comes  from  Clark  University  where  he  has  just  com- 
pleted residence  work  for  the  Ph.  D.  degree.  He  graduated  from 
Illinois  Wesleyan  in  1903,  and  has  done  graduate  work  at  the  Uni- 
versity of  Chicago  and  the  University  of  Illinois.  He  has  had  suc- 
cessful experience  in  High  Schools  and  as  Professor  of  Chemistry 
and  Physics  in  Upper  Iowa  University. 


Miss  Edith  Hadley  has  been  secured  as  instructor  in  German. 
She  is  a graduate  of  Olivet  College  and  also  of  the  University  of 
Michigan  where  she  received  the  degree  of  M.  A.  Miss  Hadley  is  a 
successful  and  experienced  teacher  of  German,  well  qualified  every 
way  to  do  a high  grade  of  work.

JAMES  REISTRUP,  Insructor  in  Piano  Forte 


CECIL  BURLEIGH,  Teacher  of  Violin 


CLOVIS  B.  JOHNSON,  Instructor  in  Voice 


Mr.  James  Reistrup,  of  Racine,  Wis.,  has  been  elected  Instructor  in 
Piano  Forte.  He  has  studied  with  leading  teachers  in  Chicago  and  for 
years  in  Europe,  among  others  with  Alberto  Jonas,  recognized  as  one  of 
the  world’s  greatest  teachers.  His  playing  is  marked  with  great  sympa- 
thy and  expression.  He  is  a successful  and  experienced  piano  instructor 
who  will  greatly  benefit  his  pupils. 


Morningside  has  engaged  a splendid  concert  performer,  thoroughly 
advanced  in  technic,  efficient  violin  instructor,  Mr.  Cecil  Burleigh.  He 
has  studied  in  Berlin,  two  years  with  Anton  Witek  and  Max  Grunberg. 
He  has  composed  much  and  traveled  two  years  with  the  Slayton 
Lyceum  Bureau. 


Another  valuable  addition  to  the  Conservatory  is  Mr.  Clovis  B. 
Johnson,  teacher  of  voice.  He  has  a magnificent  bass-baritone  voice  and 
his  repertory  is  very  large.  He  studied  with  Mr.  Thos.  McBurney  of 
Chicago,  once  assistant  to  Frank  Clark  King  of  Paris,  one  of  the  greatest 
singing  teachers  of  Europe.  He  has  taught  with  great  success. 


Miss  Mae  E.  Wood  is  a graduate  of  Morningside  College,  and  a 
very  successful  teacher  of  children  and  beginners  in  piano  forte.  These 
can  now  start  their  study  in  the  Conservatory  with  certainty  of  good 
instruction  without  being  obliged  to  pay  the  higher  rates  of  tuition. 


MAE  EDITH  WOOD,  A.  B. 
Teacher  of  Piano  Forte. 


MISS  WINIFRED  A.  GARNICH 
Director  of  Physical  Training 
for  Women. 


Modern  life  demands  physical  as  well  as  intellectual  develop- 
ment. Such  development  in  the  college  woman  is  imperative,  and 
Morningside  has  recognized  its  value.  The  college  has  succeeded 
in  securing  an  efficient  physical  director  for  girls  in  Miss  Winifred 
A.  Garnich,  who  comes  to  us  a graduate  of  the  Columbia  School  of 
Expression,  having  done  her  preparatory  work  in  Northland  College. 
Miss  Garnich  is  peculiarly  adapted  to  this  work,  having  made  a 
thorough  study  of  this  branch  of  training.  The  work  is  divided  into 
three  series  of  classes  that  meet  twice  a week.  There  are  drills  with 
wands,  Indian  clubs,  dumb  bells,  etc.  The  proper  positions  in  sittingt 
walking  and  standing  are  emphasized,  and  thus  give  graceful  poise 
and  womanly  strength.  Drills  and  steps  of  various  kinds  are  prac- 
ticed. Intellectually  and  physically  perfect  is  the  aim  of  Morningside. 


Mr.  Hariy  W.  Ewing,  assistant  coach  of  the  University 
of  Nebraska,  has  been  selected  as  the  head  of  the  Depart- 
ment of  Physical  Training  at  Morningside.  In  general 
athletic  work  Mr.  Ewing  has  had  a wide  experience,  and 
has  excelled  particularly  in  football.  He  began  his  athletic 
career  in  the  Lincoln  high  school  in  the  fall  of  1904.  In 
this  year  Lincoln  won  the  championship  of  Iowa, 
Nebraska  and  Kansas.  The  next  year  they  won  the  cham- 
pionship of  the  United  States.  Mr.  Ewing  was  also 
prominent  in  basket  ball,  baseball  and  track  work. 

Entering  the  University  in  1906,  he  played  regularly 
on  the  team  that  won  the  championship  of  the  Missouri  Val- 
ley in  1907  and  continued  on  the  Varsity  until  1910,  when 
he  was  elected  to  the  position  of  assistant  coach  at  the  "U," 
and  helped  turn  out  a team  which  again  won  the  Valley 
championship.  In  ’07-08-09  he  was  picked  on  the  "All 
Missouri  Valley  Eleven"  and  in  09  he  was  picked  by  some 
critics  for  the  "All  Western  Eleven." 

Mr.  Ewing  is  a young  man  of  fine  personal  appear- 
ance, a splendid  student,  having  studied  in  residence  the 
amount  necessary  for  the  degrees  M.  A.  and  LL.  B.,  a 
clean  athlete  and  the  embodiment  of  all  the  qualifications 
that  make  for  leadership  in  continuing  the  wonderful 
athletic  achievments  of  Morningside. 


COACH  EWING. 


NEW  FIELD  HOUSE. 


This  large  and  ample  field  house  recently  built  on  Bass  Field  for  indoor  track  and  base- 
ball work,  has  been  the  scene  of  more  athletic  activity  during  the  hours  for  exercise,  from  4:00 
to  6:00  p.  m.,  than  is  recorded  of  any  University  or  College  on  its  lists  of  exchanges.  The  field 
house  does  not  interfere  in  the  realm  of  the  gymnasium,  nor  does  it  take  the  place  of  one.  It 
was  in  this  modern  house  that  the  team  who  won  the  state  meet  at  Grinnell,  was  developed. 


To  Morningside  College  belongs  the  distinction  of  having  an 
athlete  who  ranks  sixth  in  competition  with  the  best  athletes  in  the 
United  States.  Captain  Quarnstrom  of  the  Morningside  track  squad, 
has  twice  duplicated  this  feat,  this  year  annexing  300  more  points  to 
his  total,  than  in  1910.

The  necessary  expenses  for  a year  are  as  follows:  LOW 

Tuition $48.00 

incidental  fee  (which  includes  free  admission  to  all  College  events) 9.00 

Table  board  (estimated)  80.00

$270.00 


Other  expenses  depend  largely  upon  the  personal  habits  and  desires  of  the  student.  However  such  incidental 
personal  expenses  should  not  exceed  $15.00  to  $25.00  for  the  year.  Railroad  fare  and  clothing  of  course,  are  not 
included  in  above  estimates. 

Many  students  earn  their  way  in  part  while  in  college.  Any  young  man  or  woman  with  perseverance  and 
strength  for  work  of  various  kinds  will  find  opportunity  for  self  help.  If  such  a one  has  $125.00  with  which  to  begin, 
he  or  she  is  perfectly  safe  in  starting  to  college.  Usually  it  is  impractical  to  seek  to  arrange  for  work  in  advance. 
After  the  student  is  on  the  ground  and  acquainted  this!  can  be  done  much  more  satisfactorily. 


With  fifteen  colleges  competing,  Mr.  Johnson  won 
second  place  in  the  State  Oratorical  Contest,  losing  the 
decision  to  Mr.  Emerson,  of  Ames.  One  week  later  at  the 
State  Peace  Contest  at  Pella,  Iowa,  Mr.  Johnson  won  over 
Emerson,  the  same  orations  being  in  competition.  Morn- 
ingside  has  a record  in  oratory  unequalled  by  any  college 
in  the  state.  With  seventeen  colleges  competing,  Morn- 
ingside’s  representatives  have  in  the  past  four  years  won 
first  place  once,  and  second  place  three  times.

NEGATIVE  OF  INTER-COLLEGIATE  DEBATING  TEAMS,  1910-11. 


Morningside  has  made  a consistent  record  in  debate.  Occasional  victory  is  to  be  expected, 
but  continuous  success  is  the  mark  of  live  work,  proper  training  and  enthusiastic  support.

the  old  men  meet;  new  acquaintances  are  formed;  light  signal  practices  are  used;  talks  are 
given  by  the  Coach,  and  all  are  made  stronger  in  body  and  mind  for  the  greater  things  at
